I mean, it looks interesting and I would like to play around with it, but I don't understand enough to know what kind of stuff I can build with it.

- dsun180 7y agoI tried several times to understand what GUNdb does and how its different or which features it has. I have given up. As far as I can tell it is something between Blockchain, graph-database and sync. I also tried to understand the codebase which is impossible with obfuscated code like this one: https://github.com/amark/gun/blob/master/lib/store.js#L16 https://github.com/amark/gun/blob/master/lib/store.js#L16
